Delete Part Of An Image In Inkscape

In past tutorials we've gone over various ways to use Inkscape for removing backgrounds from images and isolating subjects from the rest of the image. In this tutorial, however, we'll be going over how to delete part of an image in Inkscape. This will be accomplished by creating what's called an inverse clipping mask.
